Raw Story: On Wednesday,
The Washington Post revealed that the U.S. Army falsely denied for days that the brother of former President Donald Trump’s disgraced ex-National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was involved in decision-making during the military response to the Capitol invasion two weeks ago.
Why was there no authorization for the National Guard? Between Lt. Gen. Charles Flynn and SecArmy McCarthy…they apparently just left our Capitol defenseless FROM AN ATTACK MIKE FLYNN WAS PART OF. pic.twitter.com/dGI5JkT2b0 Eric Garland (@ericgarland) January 21, 2021

I will analyse below (blue annotations are my comments) to understand the nature of the claims. It is really hard to find time to investigate all their claims – the evidence provided is comprehensive and will take a lot of time to study. In the main they explore what would be called a conspiracy theory and corruption. The standard of proof to meet in order prove conspiracy is going to be much higher than the ordinary proofs (of harms, breaches of the laws) needed to prove crimes against humanity.
I may return to this letter in due course. At the moment, I can confirm that this is a SUPERB piece of analysis, and well worth devoting time.
Facebook Fact-Checker Funded by Chinese Money Through TikTok
While Facebook portrays its army of fact-checkers as independent, the money behind at least one carries a distinct taint.
One such fact-checker, Lead Stories, is partly paid through a partnership with TikTok, a social media platform run by a Chinese company that owes its allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). TikTok currently is being probed by U.S. officials as a national security threat.
Moreover, the organization that’s supposed to oversee the quality of fact-checkers is run by Poynter Institute, another TikTok partner.
Lead Stories says it’s been contracted by ByteDance “for fact-checking-related work,” referring to TikTok’s announcement earlier this year that it has partnered with several organizations “to further aid our efforts to reduce the spread of misinformation,” particularly regarding the CCP virus pandemic, which originated in China and was exacerbated by the CCP regime’s coverup.
